    I visited New Zealand as a traveler in 1983 ( I’m a French born British national converted to Sikhism and married to a Sikh lady) Now settled in Chandigarh and doing organic farming near Ropar .I tasted Indian food in a restaurant called Ashiana in Auckland , but this place is amazing, food and garden. I will definitely visit this place if I get the opportunity to visit New Zealand once again. Todd’s Hindi is amazing . , we need more people like him to bring more tolerance in this thiincreasingly polarised world, SAT SRI AKAL, SALAM SHALOM SHANTI from Raza Organic Farm. Often called Angrez ka farm .

    It is hard to live abroad , especially in countries like these where the constant hustle and bustle and noise is absent. It feels like the world has come to a startling stop and definitely takes a while to get accustomed. It is also very hard to meet or just casually start a conversation with people in a country like New Zealand, where population is sparse compared to India.
    As a fellow Indian living abroad I can understand the feeling of being away from home, but Karl is our inspiration of how one can fit in and become one with a totally different setting , change peoples minds and find home once again with entirely different people.

Jai Hind Karl Ji, 👍and greetings 👋from central Mexico.
    * I once read in an edition of NatGeo that the people of Assam are of the same bronze color and physical features as my American Indian ancestors, so maybe that's why I like Indian stuff.😊

    I lived in New Zealand until 1985. During that time the only Indian restaurant in Auckland was Ashiana and Raj Bombay take away. When I returned after 25 years, I visited an Indian restaurant specialising in Dosa and a punjabi restaurant near the Tower. The food was sublime. Also saw an indian take away near green valley and a few srilankan shops.
    When I visited Wellington, I observed a chain known as Namaste, and a few indian food outlets in food halls. It was amazing to see so many indian restaurants.
